I'm the Dauphin in France

Chapter 1368 Three's Trip to Switzerland, Part Two
The three Bernese councilors, who had no connections in Paris, saw this as a lifeline and bowed to Sorel, saying, "Thank you, beautiful and kind lady, may God bless you."

“This is what every honest person would do,” Sorel returned the greeting, then asked, “Do you know that swindler’s real name?”

Count Elach shook his head.

"Do you know where he went?"

"..."

After a long pause, Sorel said helplessly, "I can ask a friend to check if any fraud gangs have been around lately. But there are too few clues, I'm afraid..."

Count Elah could tell from her words that she was a noblewoman of considerable status, and immediately replied:

“Miss Freize, if the money is truly unrecoverable, then so be it. As long as Bern can be incorporated into France, I’m willing to spend even more money.”

Sorel said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I know absolutely nothing about politics."

Count Elach said hopefully, "If you could take us to see Mr. Jean-Sylvain Baie, it would be a great help."

"Uh, I'm not very familiar with him..."

"Where is Mr. Martin Michel Godin?"

"We're not familiar with each other..."

"..."

The Swiss man bowed disappointedly: "Thank you for your kindness, Miss Fritz, but we won't take up any more of your time."

Sorel understood that this meant, "Please don't waste our time."

Her face flushed as she said, "Perhaps there are other things I can help with."

Count Elah, who was about to board the carriage, turned back, thinking he had nothing to lose: "Thank you so much. If you know anyone who can see His Highness the Crown Prince..."

Sorel nodded. Count Elach was overjoyed and asked excitedly, "Which sir are you referring to?"

Sorel pointed to herself somewhat awkwardly.

……

Two days later.

In the marble courtyard of Versailles Palace, Alexandra, arm in arm with Joseph, sweetly murmured, "Your wedding dress has been ready for a while now; you should try it on as soon as possible. Especially the one you'll wear for the second wedding at Notre Dame. I think altering a military uniform into a dress would be less appealing than wearing your hussar uniform..."

At Joseph's request, their wedding will be held in two parts.

Traditional French royal weddings are held in the chapel of Versailles, with attendees primarily being members of the nobility. Joseph, however, desired an even grander ceremony at Notre Dame Cathedral, allowing all Parisians to witness the Dauphin's wedding. He envisioned a future French king who would be the king of all French people, not just the king of the nobility.

As the two were talking, Emman quickly came to Joseph's side, bowed and said, "Your Highness, Archbishop Beaumont, Archbishop Aselli and seven other archbishops wish to see you."

Joseph smiled. They were very well-informed; he had only been back in Paris for a little over an hour, and they were already rushing over.

He knew they were there for the Vatican's assessment and for matters of church reform. They had been "simmering" the church for so long; the time was almost right.

So he nodded and said, "Let them come tomorrow morning."

"Yes, Your Highness."

As soon as Joseph returned to his bedroom, he saw the Director of Intelligence, Rhondalie, waiting outside the door.

"What happened?"

Rhondal stepped forward and bowed, lowering his voice to say, "Your Highness, the day before yesterday, Mr. Robespierre sent his men to storm monasteries in more than twenty cities."
